Jednu z nejpopulárnějších cest popsaných v anglické literatuře podnikli pánové Jerome Klapka Jerome, George, Harris a foxteriér Montmorency už před více než sto lety. Veslovali proti proudu Temže z Kingstonu do Oxfordu a jejich zážitky vtělil roku 1889 Jerome do klasického humoristického dílka "Tři muži ve člunu". Nigel Williams zopakoval tuto pouť počátkem 90.let 20.století s dvěma přáteli, nemluvě o voříškovi jménem Jezevec a napsal o ní veselou knížku, v níž se znovu zračí ten kousek staré Anglie z Jeromeových dob.
